09 idrive randomly shuts off

[btran86]

Anybody experience their idrive shut off for a second and turns right back on while driving?

This happens randomly, sometimes it happens just once and sometimes it shuts off and on about 3 or 4 times. (about half a second or a second each time)

I dont think this is common. I Just hit 51k, do have extended warranty.

Now when you say it shuts off and goes back on, does it go back to the screen it was on previously, or does it restart completely and say BMW?

the screen goes back to what it was previously.. no restart, and the song just skips a second.
